Unfortunately, I cannot commit to turn-chats, so cannot run for things of this nature.

I do have a suggestion, however. I do not think that we should put up candidates just to have one. If someone truly wants that job, great, if not we, as a party, do not need to contest for that position. We could even publicly support a DIA or Independant candidate, thus showing that we can look beyond our party lines for the greater good. Just something to consider.

**Duddha** · July 5, 2002, 13:30

If there is no one to run against a DIA candidate we should still field a candidate for the sake of democracy. That doesn't mean we can't vote outside the party, but lets just hope for now that we can get as many competent UFC candidates as possible.

**UnOrthOdOx** · July 5, 2002, 14:00

I was just suggesting something of a PR move, if you will. The DIA is off and screaming of their "level headed" approach. The problem is that it is working. If we PUBLICALLY support a candidate or even just a plain idea that is against what is viewed as our agenda, we can possibly gain some ground with Independants.

We are being protrayed as people who do not care at all for cultural building, only for Military. We should come out and stress that, while we believe military is the means to secure our position as a world leader, cultural/scientific buildings are a part of that position as well. We will not neglect them.

I would like to formally announce my candidacy for minister of foreign affairs...

**Duddha** · July 5, 2002, 16:40

alright!

**UnOrthOdOx** · July 5, 2002, 16:50

Good Luck!

**jdd2007** · July 5, 2002, 17:22

how about you, Duddha? and UnOrthOdOx? are you two going to run for anything?

**UnOrthOdOx** · July 5, 2002, 17:24

I can't make ANY turnchats, so would likely be ineffective. I am considering the Judicial thing if it passes.

**LordImpact** · July 5, 2002, 17:28

Good luck to all my UFC comrades!

jdd2007, I hope you sweep this election so that I might serve under you as an ambassador. If you'll have me that is.

**jdd2007** · July 5, 2002, 17:30

thank you. i hope so too, but Sn00p will be hard opposition...

**UnOrthOdOx** · July 5, 2002, 17:32

It would look good if you were to at least OFFER Sn00p an ambassador position should you come out victorious,
(I may be in danger of becomming the UFC PR guy...)

**LordImpact** · July 5, 2002, 17:35

Very true. I have a feeling this is going to be a very close election. Both candidates are very well qualified. Sn00py would make a very good addition to your group of ambassadors, possibly even the senior ambassador. That way you'll atleast have a qualified person to take over for you if you cant make it to a turn chat.

**History Guy** · July 5, 2002, 18:11

If I am elected, of course, I shant be able to vote for anything, but before the historian election, I shall vote the UFC way.

Vote for me for historian, it's the UFC choice.

**Duddha** · July 5, 2002, 18:22

History Guy and jdd2007 will be running some close elections.

I can't run for anything because in a week I'll be leaving for UC Irvine for an Astronomy course. I'll be back in a little over a month.
